Abstract
In this study, the effect of moisture content and density of panel on some physical and mechanical properties of fiberboard was investigated. The effect of moisture and density differences on some properties of fiberboard were aimed to be revealed. The test samples were obtained from fiberboards which were divided into three different density (0.590 g/cm3, 630 g/cm3 and 0.680 g/cm3) and moisture contents (6%, 9% and 12%) groups. Within the scope of the study, physical properties such as water absorption and thickness swelling and mechanical properties such as bending strength, modulus of elasticity, internal bond strength, Janka hardness and screw holding capacity were determined. The physical and mechanical properties of the boards with different moisture and density values differed significantly. For instance, the internal bond strengths were determined as 0.34 N/mm2, 0.39 N/mm2 and 0.62 N/mm2 in the low, medium and high density groups, respectively. Respective values for moisture content groups were found 0.52 N/mm2, 0.45 N/mm2 and 0.38 N/mm2, respectively. Furthermore, the screw holding capacity which is important strength for fiberboard were determined as 15.3 N/mm2, 18.8 N/mm2 and 25.3 N/mm2 in the low, medium and high density groups, respectively. And respective values for moisture content groups were found as 19.8 N/mm2, 20.1 N/mm2 and 19.4 N/mm2, respectively. In the samples belonging to the same moisture group, high mechanical properties at low moisture content and low mechanical properties at high moisture content were obtained. Research results revealed that the mechanical properties increased in parallel with the increase in density. Physical and mechanical properties of MDF boards change as the board density increases. Generally, as the board density increased, all mechanical properties increased. However, with the increase in moisture percentage, the mechanical properties of the boards decreased.

Abstract
Bu çalışmada, rutubet ve yoğunluk farklılıklarının, liflevhanın bazı fiziksel ve mekanik özellikleri üzerine etkisinin ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan test numuneleri, üç farklı yoğunluk grubuna (0.590 g/cm3, 0.630 g/cm3 ve 0.680 g/cm3) ve üç farklı rutubet derecesine (%6, %9 ve %12) ayrılan lif levhalardan elde edilmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında, su alma ve kalınlığına şişme gibi fiziksel özellikler ile eğilme direnci, eğilmede elastikiyet modülü, iç yapışma kuvveti, Janka sertlik ve vida tutma kapasitesi gibi mekanik özellikler belirlenmiştir. Farklı rutubet ve yoğunluk değerlerine sahip levhaların fiziksel ve mekanik özellikleri önemli ölçüde farklılık göstermiştir. Levhaların yüzeye dik çekme direnci düşük yoğunluk grubunda 0.34 N/mm2, orta yoğunluk grubunda 0.39 N/mm2, yüksek yoğunluk grubunda 0.62 N/mm2 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Rutubet miktarlarına göre kıyaslandığında ise düşük rutubetten yüksek rutubete doğru sırası ile 0.52 N/mm2, 0.45 N/mm2 ve 0.38 N/mm2 bulunmuştur. Yine, MDF için önemli dirençlerden vida tutma direnci düşük yoğunluk grubunda 15.3 N/mm2, orta yoğunluk grubunda 18.8 N/mm2 ve yüksek yoğunluk grubunda 25.3 N/mm2 olarak belirlenmiştir. Aynı şekilde, rutubet grupları için de düşük rutubette 19.8 N/mm2, orta rutubette 20.1 N/mm2 ve yüksek rutubette 19.4 N/mm2 değerleri elde edilmiştir. Yine, MDF için önemli dirençlerden vida tutma direnci testlerinde yoğunluk grupları için değerler, LD: 15.3, MD: 18.8 ve HD: 25.3 N/mm2 olarak ölçüldü. Aynı şekilde, rutubet grupları için de, LM: 19.8, MM: 20.1 ve HM: 19.4 N/mm2 değerleri elde edilmiştir. Aynı rutubet grubuna ait numunelerde, düşük nem içeriğinde yüksek mekanik özellikler ve yüksek nem içeriğinde düşük mekanik özellikler elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları, mekanik özelliklerin yoğunluktaki artışa paralel olarak arttığını ortaya koymuştur. MDF levhaların, fiziksel ve mekanik özellikleri levha yoğunluğu arttıkça değişmektedir. Genel olarak, levha yoğunluğu arttıkça, tüm mekanik özellikler artmıştır. Fakat, rutubet yüzdesindeki artışla levhaların mekanik özellikleri azalmıştır.
